:? You personally or available?? Cause I just bought it for them & had to sample it, of course. It's a yellow, football shaped fruit that looks like a star when view from either end. :D Mine also adore Delicious Apple. Guess it's like candy because it's soooo sweet. Grapes, Cranberries, Raisens, Craisens, Bananas, Pineapple, Mango, Watermelon, Cantelope, Honeydew, Papaya, Strawberries, Blueberries, Kiwi, the possibilities are endless really. If any of these don't appeal to you, I cut it all up & freeze it to use as needed. [smilie=crazy.gif] Like I don't eat fish, so like a fool, I went & purchase 4 different kinds (SHHHH...Don't tell my husband!), about McNugget sized pieces, at the supermarket & put them in snack bags, then a freezer bag. That way I can just cut off crab-sized pieces, thaw for a few, & put in their bowl. :shock: The pieces cost me a total of about $0.85 & will at least last me a month! It was definitely worth it because they're all double-clawing the catfish! It's a reg feeding frenzy in there. [smilie=cheer.gif] [smilie=banana.gif]

Last night was a night of fine dining and.... general face stuffing. :)

I filled one shell with a mix of:
Thawed Squid (umm... yuk!)
Organic blueberries
a touch of peanut oil
crushed oyster shells
shredded coconut
dried hawaiin mangrove
and several kibbles (Sorry!! Can't remember now.)
all on a bed of green and red seaweeds

The next shell was simple:
Crabbage Patch soil mix was on the bottom
Topped with coconut oil popped popcorn
Dusted with NarNar's (Happy Hermit) popcorn dusting

The popcorn was GONE the next day and any little shreds left were quickly gobbled up. The Squid shell was tipped and it looked like they either had a food fight or rolled in it. Must have been enjoyed! :?

:D Sometimes simple is the best. Just think of how long it's been, if ever, since they had mango. Did they enjoy it? That's all that's important. [smilie=claps.gif]

Mine LOVE mango... they are getting that tonight with some other goodies. :)

I think in the meat dish they are getting a frozen krill (thawed) sprinkled with seaweeds and more.

Tonight I put together something I knew they would love because I got a new crab.

I make them a recipe I call the “Forest Floor Specialâ€

Last night I whipped up something real quick because we had turkey for dinner and I wanted to share. :) (We get our meat delivered from a local meat copany and they have incredible standards on their meat so our sharing is fine. I just FORGET to share most of the time before we add seasonings.)

At any rate, they had some leftovers in the fridge to finish up too.

1 Dish:
Ground turkey
egg with shell and spirulina mix
papaya
apple

2 Dish:
Popcorn tossed with NarNar's Happy Hermit popcorn dusting

Very simple, but they loved it. It was all their leftovers too so now the fridge is almost cleaned out. Heh...
